Column: Falmouth gardens that feed the hungry are growing

MAINE SUNDAY TELEGRAM • September 18, 2022

The Gardens at Tidewater Farm at Falmouth is growing. Not just the vegetables and flowers grown for donations to food pantries and other charities, but in its mission and the infrastructure and acreage under cultivation on the site. The gardens – located at 75 Clearwater Drive in Falmouth, which is off Route 1 – are open to the public, with people free to walk around to learn about the crops (some a little unusual) being grown, as well as the gardening techniques. Tidewater cooperates regularly with its Route 1 Falmouth neighbor, Maine Audubon Society, which holds classes there. Visitors could spend a full day enjoyably at the two sites. ~ Tom Atwell
